Thai Pineapple Fried Rice

Pineapple, sriracha, fish sauce, fresh cucumber and tomato, and fragrant basil give this Thai-style fried rice some unique flavors that make it quite different from its Chinese counterpart. It makes a delicious and easy one-dish meal.

Instructions

Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a wok or large pan over medium-high heat. Add the egg and stir fry until set, breaking into small pieces as it cooks. Transfer to a dinner plate and set aside.

Increase the heat to high, add another teaspoon of oil to the pan, then add the pork strips. Cook just until lightly browned on all sides, 3 minutes. Transfer to the plate with the eggs.

Add the remainder of the oil to the pan and add the onion and garlic. Stir fry until soft and fragrant, 2 minutes. Add the red bell pepper and continue stir frying until the pepper is crisp tender, 2 minutes more.

Stir in the rice and continue to stir-fry until the rice is thoroughly heated, about 6-8 minutes. Return the pork and egg to the pan.
